- Abstract
- Providing an efficient revocationmechanism for identity-based encryption (IBE) is very important since a user's credential (or private key) can be expired or revealed. revocable IBE (RIBE) is an extension of IBE that provides an efficient revocationmechanism. Previous RIBE schemes essentially use the complete subtree (CS) scheme ofNaor, Naor and Lotspiech (CRYPTO 2001) for key revocation. In this paper, we present a new technique for RIBE that uses the efficient subset difference (SD) scheme of Naor et al. instead of using the CS scheme to improve the size of update keys. Following our new technique, we first propose an efficient RIBE scheme in prime-order bilinear groups by combining the IBE scheme of Boneh and Boyen and the SD scheme and prove its selective security under the standard assumption. Our RIBE scheme is the first RIBE scheme in bilinear groups that has O(r) number of group elements in an update key where r is the number of revoked users. Next, we also propose another RIBE scheme in composite-order bilinear groups and prove its full security under static assumptions. Our RIBE schemes also can be integrated with the layered subset difference scheme of Halevy and Shamir (CRYPTO 2002) to reduce the size of a private key.
